*OLIVER!*, with music and lyrics by Lionel Bart is based on the Charles
Dickens novel, Oliver Twist. HBTI's production of Oliver runs for 6
performances: June 28 - July 7, 2019. It is directed and choreographed by
Bebe Weinberg Katz, musical direction by John Krol and set design by T.Paul
Lowry. This Tony award-winning musical adaptation of the classic Dickens’
novel springs to life with some of the memorable characters and songs ever
to hit the stage; Food Glorious Food, Where Is Love, Consider Yourself and
As Long As He Needs Me to name just a few of the songs that earned Lionel
Bart the Tony for Best Original Score.  OLIVER is one of the few musicals
to win an academy award for Best Picture and is widely hailed as a true
theatrical masterpiece by actor and audiences alike.

About OLIVER!: The streets of Victorian England come to life as Oliver, a
malnourished orphan in a workhouse,becomes a neglected apprentice of an
undertaker.  Oliver escapes to London and finds acceptance among a group of
petty thieves and pickpockets lead by elderly Fagin. When Oliver is
captured for a theft he did not commit, the benevolent victim, Mr Brownlow,
takes him in.  Fearing for the safety of his hideout, Fagin employs the
sinister Bill Sikes and sympathetic Nancy to kidnap him back, leaving
Oliver’s chances of discovering the true love of family. Roles available
from grade 3 through college.

A New Brain, written by William Finn and James Lapine, the Tony Award
winning authors of Falsettos. HBTI's production of A New Brain witll run
for 6 performances from June 28 - July 7, 2019. It is directed by Dan
Hendrock, musical direction by John Krol and set design by T.Paul Lowry. Here
is an energetic, sardonic, often comical musical about a composer during a
medical emergency.  Gordon collapses into his lunch and awakes in the
hospital surrounded by his maritime-enthusiast lover, his mother, a
co-worker, the doctor and the nurses.  Reluctantly, he had been composing a
song for a children’s television show that features a frog- Mr. Bungee- and
the specter of the this large green character and unfinished work haunts
him throughout his medical ordeal. What was thought to be a tumor turns out
to be something more operable and Gordon recovers, grateful for a chance to
compose the songs he yearns to produce. Roles available from 7th grade
through college:
